Dedicated to promoting both mental and physical health and well-being in adults, I recognize the undeniable connection between mind and body. As a board-certified Family Nurse Practitioner and Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 25 years of experience, my approach is grounded in the belief that informed, empowered individuals make the best decisions about their health. Health promotion, disease prevention, and high-quality, compassionate care are at the core of my practice.
Our first visit is a comprehensive initial evaluation, allowing me to truly get to know you while gaining an understanding of your medical and mental health history. I strive to create a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment that encourages openness, trust, and personal growth. My goal is to see you as a whole person—not just a diagnosis. Together we will develop an individualized treatment plan that best suits your needs.
I am a firm believer in providing patient-centered care and shared decision-making. Therefore developing a trusting, transparent relationship is what I strive for with every client.
I enjoy working with adult individuals as they transition in life who are open, willing and ready to make practical, realistic changes to improve their overall wellbeing. I work with individuals navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, life transitions, feeling misunderstood or stigmatized. This is a space to pause, reflect, and heal. Seeking help takes courage, and while change can feel uncomfortable, it also holds the potential for profound growth. This is a safe, nonjudgmental environment where your story, beliefs, and experiences are honored—without pressure to conform. Here, we focus on clarity, connection, and building a path forward that aligns with who you truly are. Your privacy and confidentiality are always respected. Together, we gently uncover patterns that no longer serve you, explore new perspectives, and create space for meaningful change!
Interpersonal
Designed to deepen connection—with yourself and with others. This approach gently explores how relationships, life transitions, grief, and emotional wounds shape your inner world. Together, we create space to heal relational patterns, strengthen communication, and nurture more meaningful, authentic connections.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps bring awareness to the thoughts and patterns that shape how you feel and respond to the world. CBT is used to gently challenge unhelpful beliefs, build practical skills, and support meaningful change—so you can move forward with greater clarity, balance, and confidence.
Mindfulness-Based Therapy
Mindfulness-based therapy offers a quiet space to pause, breathe, and reconnect with yourself. This approach gently builds awareness, compassion, and inner steadiness—helping you meet life’s challenges with greater presence, clarity, and ease.
